Materials for Makers: Wood, Acrylic, Shell & More

Raw materials for makers across crafts: wood, acrylic, shell, metal, plastic and specialist composites. Whether you're sourcing for a furniture build, a laser-cut signage job, an inlay project or model engineering, this is where the catalogue collects by material type.

Have a browse by material. You'll find wood supplies including veneers, turning blanks and timber, acrylic in every format from sheets through to pen blanks, mother of pearl and abalone for inlay accents, celluloid and cellulose nitrate for traditional pickguards and pen wrap, metal stock for fabrication and model work, and Kirinite for vivid acrylic-resin blocks and scales.

Looking for finished parts instead? See parts and hardware for makers. For an audience-specific route, head to luthiery, furniture making, turning, or jewellery making. And if you're stuck on a step, our blog covers practical advice on choosing the right material and working with what you've sourced.
